The present invention is based on the experimental results of forming a trench isolation structure and the experimental results of insulating film etching. First, when forming a trench isolation structure, by using an oxide film and a nitride film as dummy insulating films, a concave portion can be locally formed at the upper end of the trench isolation groove by wet etching as shown in FIG. By embedding this concave portion with an insulating film different from the embedded insulating film,
A desired trench structure can be formed. Further, in the etching of the silicon oxide film and the silicon nitride film, in the related art,
The etching rates were almost the same. However, as shown in FIG. 7, the etching rate ratio between the silicon oxide film and the silicon nitride film is reduced to 10 by etching using CFx gas.
It can be about twice. Therefore, by using the results of FIGS. 6 and 7, even if the contact etching is shifted, the contact wiring metal can be formed without etching the insulating film filling the trench isolation trench.
